The term rolling stock in the rail transport industry refers to railwayvehicles, including both powered and unpowered vehicles, for example locomotives, railroad cars, coaches, private railroad cars and wagons.^[1][2][3][4] A connected series of railway vehicles is a train.

In the United States, the definition has been expanded from the older broadly defined 'trains' to include wheeled vehicles used by businesses on roadways.^[5][6][7]

Overview[edit]

The word 'stock' in the term is used in a sense of inventory. Rolling stock is considered to be a liquid asset, or close to it, since the value of the vehicle can be readily estimated and then shipped to the buyer without much cost or delay.^[8][9] The term contrasts with fixed stock (infrastructure), which is a collective term for the track, signals, stations, other buildings, electric wires, etc., necessary to operate a railway.

Code names[edit]

In Great Britain, types of rolling stock were given code names, often of animals. For example, 'Toad' was used as a code name for the Great Western Railway goods brake van,^[10] while British Railways wagons used for track maintenance were named after fish, such as 'Dogfish' for a ballast hopper.^[11] These codes were telegraphese, somewhat analogous to the SMS language of today.
